Get The Scoop On How To Get Great Solar Panel Prices 

We all want to know the juicy gossip.  Has Yeezy lost it for real this time? We want all very concerned about our celebrities, our neighbors, our children's friend's parents, and we need to get the scoop.  We are very nosey.  But, when it comes to getting the dish on solar panels, there are some equally juicy considerations to think about before jumping into the ever-growing tsunami of the solar revolution.  Let's explore some of these considerations and see if going solar is the right move today, and how you might get the best deal available.   


Multiple Offers Lowers Costs

When it comes to home improvements, from countertops to bathroom tile, there is a vast sea of professionals ready to bid for your needed work.  When it comes to solar, there is no difference.  While investigating which solar panel installation company to hire, consider some concepts before beginning your journey.  Start by asking how they are going to install the solar panels, and discuss with you the process; you are looking for the best price with the least amount of modification to your existing surfaces.  Secondly, make sure they discuss warranties and guarantees.  You want to know you are covered if something goes wrong, and this can end up saving you thousands in the long run. Estimations from installation businesses also will let customers see whether the companies recognize the homeowners' needs. Installation companies should base the measurement of a rooftop system on how much energy a particular family uses, not just install the most solar panels as can fit on a roof.


HOA And Solar Panels

Do you live in an area with a homeowners association?  These associations can be significant when you have a real maverick for a neighbor, and he keeps painting that Jackson Pollock replication on his garage door; embarrassing your children.  However, when it comes to your desire to install solar panels, the HOA has to be considered. Some HOAs can restrain some observed aspects of solar installations, but they can't restrict homeowners from installing panels altogether.  One example hails from Arizona where the Arizona Revised Statutes declared that any association rules that solar installations are invalid.


Buy Or Lease Solar

Now that you have considered a few critical parts of installation solutions, how are you going to pay for your solar panels?   There are a few options for buying your solar panels.  Leases with little or no money down are popular options for homeowners who want to create their electricity but don't/can't put down the typically considerable sticker cost of a solar panel system. 

Leases come with the benefit that another company owns and maintains the panels, but the drawback that customers will save less money over time making monthly lease payments. However, remember that leases that escalate over time can end up being pricey down the road. If leasing isn't for you, then remember that some solar companies offer loans with little or no money down.
